PM Anutin announced a strategic shift at Bangkok Business Summit 2026, calling on foreign investors to move beyond passive investment toward co-creating Thailand's future industries. The "Build with Thailand" initiative emphasizes leveraging existing industrial clusters, skilled labour, supply chains, and digital infrastructure across automotive, electronics, food, health, and tourism sectors while supporting SME development. Key competitive advantages include Thailand's ASEAN hub position (serving ~1.7 billion people), ability to integrate emerging tech with established industries, and commitment to climate investment, green energy, and an aging-economy business model—backed by regulatory streamlining and potential OECD membership to boost investor confidence.
